-# This file contains all the bugs/glitches/inconsistencies shipped in
-# 9.0 (Dolphin) Mandrake Linux Release.
-
-# Feel free to add your entry and if possible the fixes and status of
-# the errata.
-
- o Drakxtools:
-   ==========  
-
-   widget libraries:
-
-    In both XFdrake and printerdrake pop up small, empty, gray windows when 
-    clicking in the main menu. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
-    Scroll bars and widget sizes often not correct (visible primarily in the
-    printer options step of the "Add printer" wizard of printerdrake. STATUS:
-    Not fixed.
-   
-   harddrake:
-
-   logdrake:
-    IS: Send the alert mail when service is stopped but the mail
-	      is empty.
-    SHOULD BE: incorporate a text on which service is stopped.
-    Status: not fixed. 
-
- o Drakconf:
-   =========
-   IS: locale nl_NL, sl and zh_CN prevent drakconf from starting with
-   a "cannot call set_active on undefined values" error.
-
-   SHOULD BE: work well in all locales.
-   
-   a workaround has been comitted
-
- o Drakfont:
-   =========
-
-   drakfont get stopped in stat64("/mnt/nt/winnt/fonts/8514oem.fon",
-   ...) on ntfs partitions.
-   there's a bug in ntfs.o fs module of the kernel
-
- o Install: 
-   ========
- 
- o urpmi:
-   ======
-
-   "urpmi mplayer" shows a list of libraries it needs and asks whether
-   to install all this, after saying "y", it says that all these
-   packages are missing and fails (I have shown it to François and he
-   says that is a bug with the "contribs". He had to regenerate the
-   hdlists somehow. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
- o XFree 4.2.x:
-   ============
-
-   Touchpad mouse on my Asus S8600 notebook. Worked out-of-the-box
-   with Mandrake 8.2, but in 9.0 I cannot do any dragging operation
-   with the PS/2-"Standard" mouse setting. I switched to "Glidepoint"
-   with mousedrake and then dragging works, but the emulation of the
-   third button by pressing both buttons not. Adding the lines
-
-      Option "Emulate3Buttons"
-      Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
-
-   to the mouse section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 manually fixes the
-   middle-button problem. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
-
-
-   Sometimes, XFree86 can cause sound glitches because of intensive
-   pci bus usage.
-   Adding the line
-
-      Option "PciRetry" "true"
-
-   to the "Device" section /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 fixes these boxes.
-
-
-   I810 driver is bogus: when Xrender extension is in use (antialiased
-   fonts), X11 may crash upon vt switch.
-   is fixed in devel branch of cvs
-
-
- o Printer drivers:
-   ================
-
-   "Best Grayscale" mode of HP DeskJet 6xx and Apollo printers does
-   not work. STATUS: Fixed on linuxprinting.org, needs to be packaged
-   in "printer-drivers".
-
-o kernel:
-  =======
-
-  Sometimes reboot stops on "illegal seek" message (having /usr on /
-  fs fix it)
-
-  Sometimes process get blocked in D-state on ntfs partitions (see
-  drakfont)
-
-  i810_audio mistakely say to modules.pm through modules.*map it
-  handles nforces whereas it lacks some workaround nvidia and alsa
-  uses.
-  workaround: perl-install/patch/patch-nforce.pl
-
-  snd-via686 is said to produce background noise since alsa-0.9.0rc3
-  workaround: switch to via82cxxx_audio (oss driver) through draksound

-		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-		       Version 2, June 1991
-
- Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
-                       59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
-			    Preamble
-
-  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
-freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
-License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
-software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
-General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
-Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
-using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
-the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
-your programs, too.
-
-  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
-price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
-this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
-if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
-in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
-
-  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
-anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
-These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
-distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
-
-  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
-gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
-you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
-source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
-rights.
-
-  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
-(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
-distribute and/or modify the software.
-
-  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
-that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
-software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
-want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
-that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
-authors' reputations.
-
-  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
-patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
-program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
-program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
-patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
-
-  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow.
-
-		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
-
-  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
-a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
-under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
-refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
-means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
-that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
-either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
-language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
-the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
-
-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
-covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
-running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
-is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
-Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
-Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
-
-  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
-source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
-conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
-copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
-notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
-and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
-along with the Program.
-
-You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
-you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
-
-  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
-of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
-distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
-above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
-    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
-    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
-
-    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
-    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
-    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
-    parties under the terms of this License.
-
-    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
-    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
-    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
-    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
-    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
-    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
-    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
-    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
-    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
-    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
-
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
-and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
-sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
-on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
-this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
-entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
-
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
-collective works based on the Program.
-
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
-with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
-a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
-the scope of this License.
-
-  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
-under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
-Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
-
-    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
-    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
-    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
-
-    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
-    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
-    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
-    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
-    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
-    customarily used for software interchange; or,
-
-    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
-    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
-    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
-    received the program in object code or executable form with such
-    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
-
-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
-making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
-code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
-associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
-control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
-special exception, the source code distributed need not include
-anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
-form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
-operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
-itself accompanies the executable.
-
-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
-access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
-access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
-distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
-compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
-
-  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
-except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
-otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
-void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
-However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
-this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
-parties remain in full compliance.
-
-  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
-signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
-distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
-prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
-modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
-Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
-all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
-the Program or works based on it.
-
-  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
-Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
-original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
-these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
-restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
-You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
-this License.
-
-  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
-may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
-license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
-all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
-the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
-refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
-
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
-any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
-apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
-circumstances.
-
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
-integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
-implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
-generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
-through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
-system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
-to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
-impose that choice.
-
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
-be a consequence of the rest of this License.
-
-  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
-certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
-original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
-may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
-those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
-countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
-the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
-
-  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
-of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
-be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
-later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
-either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
-Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
-this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
-Foundation.
-
-  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
-programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
-to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
-Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
-make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
-of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
-of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
-
-			    NO WARRANTY
-
-  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
-FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
-OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
-PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
-OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
-MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
-TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
-PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
-REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
-  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
-REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
-INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
-OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
-TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
-YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
-PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
-POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-
-		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
-	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
-  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
-  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest

-DrakX is a very big project, and it needs special setups to work.
-The purpose of this file is to explain how you can setup your box to make it
-compile and run.
--=-=--
-
-Beware, don't try this on a production machine with important data.
-
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Sources installation:
-
-First grab the gi.tar.bz2 archive and untar it in your home directory, for 
-example from DrakX-*.src.rpm on your Mandrake Linux distribution.
-
-Fix a few things:
-% find gi -name "*/CVS/root/*" | xargs perl -pi -e 's/prigaux/anoncvs/'
-
-Then, log yourself into the cvs:
-% export CVS_RSH=ssh
-% export CVSROOT=:ext:anoncvs@cvs.mandrakesoft.com:/cooker
-% cvs checkout gi
-        (the passwd is: 'cvs')
-
-And update the gi package:
-% cvs update -P -d gi
-
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Preparing the compilation process:
-
-(1) target directory
-
-Create a top level directory called /export and give write permissions to 
-the user/group that will be compiling DrakX.  It is also suggested that you 
-copy a recent Mandrake Linux CD in there. (You don't have to put have all 
-the RPMS...) ; you'll need roughly 1.5 Gbytes for a full install. (It is 
-possible to not have a copy of Mandrake Linux there, if all you desire is to 
-compile gi)
-
-
-(2) support directories
-
-You will need to create a top level /RPMS directory.  This directory needs 
-to be populated with the following RPMS:
-locales-ja locales-ko locales-zh
-
-GI needs to be informed about which kernel(s) is/are to be used.
-Most of the time, no manual install is needed. Just be sure to
-have the BOOT kernel(s) in /RPMS, and typing make later on will
-extract the package(s) and build stuff from it.
-
-FYI, for each kernel, directories will be populated as follows:
-
-gi/kernel/all.kernels/2.6.0
-        containing all files from the said kernel RPM package
-
-gi/kernel/all.modules/2.6.0
-        containing all modules, and special files containing
-        modules for stage1 (*.mar)
-
-gi/kernel/all.modules/
-        containing a special file containing modules for stage1
-        (*.cz*)
-
-Note: the modules must not be in compressed form (*.gz *.bz2 etc)
-
-
-(3) required rpm packages
-
-You need quite a number of rpm packages installed on your system
-to build gi properly. Roughly:
-
-emacs gcc make glibc-devel glibc-static-devel perl-devel XFree86
-XFree86-FBDev XFree86-VGA16 XFree86-devel libglib-devel
-libgtk+-devel perl-GTK ldetect ldetect-devel ldetect-lst
-ldetect-lst-devel libslang-devel libnewt-devel e2fsprogs
-libext2fs2-devel dosfstools rpm-devel rpmtools libbzip2_1
-libbzip2_1-devel libncurses5 libncurses5-devel setserial telnet
-parted raidtools pciutils mt-st gpart reiserfsprogs jfsprogs
-xfsprogs extipl pcmcia-cs gettext perl-Gtk2 perl-Glib ash imlib
-fb2png ntfsprogs lm_sensors galaxy-gnome perl-PerlIO-gzip brltty
-lvm2 mkcd perl-URPM glibc-i18ndata
-
-You may need a few others I forgot to mention. If the compilation fails, try 
-to understand the message and install any necessary remaining package.
-
-
-(4)
-
-NEVER build or run Drakx as root.  Install sudo and setup the following 
-permissions in /etc/sudoers:
-
-user ALL=(root)
-NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/patch,NOPASSWD:/bin/rpm,NOPASSWD:/bin/mount,NOPASSWD:/bin/cp,NOPASSWD:/bin/umount,NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/install,NOPASSWD:/bin/rm,NOPASSWD:/bin/mv,NOPASSWD:/bin/tar,NOPASSWD:/bin/cpio,NOPASSWD:/bin/chown,NOPASSWD:/bin/mkdir,NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/strip,NOPASSWD:/bin/mknod
-
-
-(5)
-
-pray
-
-[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] make
-
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The comments written with #- are automatically stripped out at install.
-
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-testing all:
-
-  go to the perl-install directory and execute ./install2 --test
-
-  NEVER execute DrakX as root! You might need to allow all users
-  to read the block devices of your hard-disks, though (chmod a+w
-  /dev/hda* for example).
-
-
-
-Here is how I (dams) made it work on my computer.
--------------------------------------------------
-
-- get the sources
-- install the librairies needed included newt-devel gtk+-devel popt-devel popt gtk-engines
-- cd path/to/gi
-- make
-- mkdir /usr/share/gtk

-        Cylinder/Head/Size Hell Is Not Over

-
-
-Nowadays, you can boot Linux without ever relying on CHS
-(Cylinder/Head/Size):
-
-- CHS information on partition table is obsolete and not used anymore.
-It was causing the 1024th cylinder limitation:
-  - disallowing partitions above 8GiG. Problem overcome using 28bits Linear
-  Block Addressing (LBA) in partition table.
-  - disallowing to boot on partition above 8GiG (due to int13 limitation used
-  in bootloaders). Problem overcome using int13 extensions (EDD)
-
-Logical CHS (Cylinder/Head/Size) and physical CHS are not related anymore.
-Especially the size of a hard drive is not a multiple of the number of
-Cylinders.
-
-
-The problem is that many tools still rely somewhat heavily on CHS information.
-- most tools adjust partitions on cylinder boundary
-- some tools compute the size of the disk based on CHS (eg: fdisk)
-
-
-Resulting problems in various tools:
-
-- last partition not cylinder boundary adjusted, and overrun CHS computed size
-  - fdisk
-    > Total allocated sectors %d greater than the maximum %d
-  - cfdisk (need confirmation)
-    > FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition %d: Partition ends after end-of-disk
-    or
-    > FATAL ERROR: Bad logical partition %d: Partition ends after end-of-disk
-  - Partition Magic (version?)
-    > Error #109: Partition ends after end of disk
-  - Windows <= 98se, Windows Me
-    (doesn't like it, what error message?)
-
-  Tools handling it correctly:
-  - parted and so diskdruid in RedHat >= 7.2 (or is it 7.x?)
-  - diskdrake >= Mandrake 8.2
-  - Windows XP (need confirmation)
-
-  Tools using the full size of the disk, and so causing pbs with fdisk/cfdisk/...:
-  - diskdrake == Mandrake 8.2
-
-- disagreement between CHS and linear address
-  - parted

-Well here is a little description of what DrakX needs to work in comparison
-to the RH newt install.
-
-********************************************************************************
-* CVS **************************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-Like all good free software, DrakX is in CVS :)
-
-You can access it at http://www.mandrakelinux.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gi
-
-or via
-
-export CVS_RSH=ssh
-export CVSROOT=:ext:anoncvs@cvs.mandrakesoft.com:/cooker
-cvs checkout gi
- (enter password 'cvs')
-
-
-This is only read-only access. If you want more, tell me (pixel@mandrakesoft.com)
-
-Alas, all is not in CVS, a lot of things come from rpm packages which you must
-install.
-
-Please note that redoing *all* the stuff is not for the faint of heart. I myself
-sometimes wonder what the whole make does :-%
-Instead, changing some .pm files is quite easy (nice interpreted language)
-
-********************************************************************************
-* Making your custom install ***************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-If you have your own rpms you want to add, or make your own updated cdrom, you
-just have to issue:
-
-% gendistrib --noclean --distrib <DIRS>
-
-Where <DIRS> is the root of all the media that the install will see, this first
-one is the main one :
-
-(1) network or 1-cdrom installs
-	DIRS == the root directory of the Distribution
-
-(2) multi-cdrom install
-	DIRS == the root directories of all the media that the install will see
-
-``gendistrib'' will scan the file Mandrake/base/hdlists in the main root
-directory (the first one in DIRS) to search for all media used. Typically you
-use Mandrake/RPMS* for RPM packages repository.
-For multi-cd, please use Mandrake/RPMS or Mandrake/RPMS1, Mandrake/RPMS2, etc.
-For one CD or a network/hd volume, please use Mandrake/RPMS.
-
-Optionnally, you can modify ``Mandrake/base/rpmsrate''; this file manages
-the relative importance of the files, and thus their installation or not.
-
-Also, mdkinst_stage2.gz must be remade if you modify files in Mandrake/mdkinst.
-See below for information about these files.
-
-********************************************************************************
-* FILES ************************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-First here are the different things needed :
-
-Mandrake/base/hdlists
-	description of the available install media.
-	format is one line for one medium as
-		<hdlist_name> <rpms_directory> <description>
-	<hdlist_name> should be match regexp /hdlist\S*.cz2?/
-	for example (two cd install) you get
-		hdlist1.cz	Mandrake/RPMS1	Boot CD
-		hdlist2.cz	Mandrake/RPMS2	Extension CD
-
-Mandrake/base/hdlist*.cz
-	table of rpm's headers, referred by ``hdlists''
-	their contents can be listed using ``packdrake -l <hdlist_file>'' or
-	or ``parsehdlist <hdlist_file>''.
-	! Need to be remade when Mandrake/RPMS* changes (with ``gendistrib'') !
-
-Mandrake/base/depslist.ordered
-	for each packages, tell which package it depends on. Also contains the
-	size for some (obscure) bloody reasons.
-	! Need to be remade when Mandrake/RPMS* changes !
-	(with ``gendistrib --noclean --distrib .'')
-
-Mandrake/base/compss
-	obsoletes comps. It store packages in different categories, generated
-	from the %{GROUP} field
-	! Need to be remade when Mandrake/RPMS* changes !
-	(with ``gendistrib --noclean --distrib .'')
-
-Mandrake/base/rpmsrate
-	ranks and classify packages, so that the installer will know which
-        ones to install. format is :
-		<intern_group>
-			<level> <packages>
-	where <intern_group> is a symbolic name used in Mandrake/base/compssUsers* files,
-	and <level> defines importance level as described below :
-		5	must have
-		4	important
-		3	very nice
-		2	nice
-		1	maybe
-	by default (for non expert), group selects packages for level 4 (important)
-	and 5 (must have). export mode add 3 (very nice) level. other level (below 2)
-	can only be selected using individual package selection.
-
-Mandrake/mdkinst
-	live system used on certain installs. See ``Ramdisk or not'' below for
-	more.
-
-Mandrake/base/mdkinst_stage2.bz2
-	for the ramdisk. live sytem in ext2 filesystem bzipped2.
-	generated from Mandrake/mdkinst tree using misc/make_mdkinst_stage2
-	See ``Ramdisk or not'' below for more.
-
-Mandrake/base/rescue_stage2.bz2
-	rescue ramdisk. live sytem in ext2 filesystem bzipped2.
-	this is the ramdisk loaded when typing rescue on boot prompt.
-	there is no live system available, only the ramdisk is used.
-
-images/*.img
-	boot images to use with DrakX. Use:
-	- cdrom for cdrom install
-	- network for ftp/nfs install (non-pcmcia devices)
-	- hd for hard-disk install
-	- pcmcia for pcmcia install (see ``PCMCIA install'' below for more)
-
-	the following modules have been removed from:
-          network.img: acenic sk98lin de4x5
-          cdrom.img and hd.img: BusLogic seagate fdomain g_NCR5380 dc395x_trm tmscsim
-          hd.img: dpt_i2o eata eata_pio eata_dma
-          cdrom.img: aztcd gscd isp16 mcd mcdx optcd cm206 sjcd 
-          pcmcia.img: apa1480_cb
-	they are now in "other.img", 
-
-	blank.img is a blank boot image without a kernel nor initrd. this image
-	can be used to generate custom boot disk (to use it:
-	compile your custom kernel with everything needed
-	compiled in the kernel, not as a module (loop.o, ext3.o
-	if needed, usb stuff, etc) and put the "vmlinuz" on the
-	blank.img, then boot on it)
-
-	if you think one of those modules is used a lot, tell me, i may find some room
-	to put it back on the main floppies.
-
-
-********************************************************************************
-* logs *************************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-During install, a lot of interesting stuff can be found in different places:
-in consoles and in files. To switch to console 2 for example, do Ctrl-Alt-F2
-from the X install.
-- alt-F1: the stdout of the install. Not very interesting stuff
-- alt-F2: simple shell. Quite a lot of commands are available but as they are
-written in perl (for space), they do not handle the very same options as normal.
-After install, you can do ``chroot /mnt'' to see your system just like after
-rebooting. ``rpm -qa'' works for example.
-- alt-F3: a lot of interesting things. Be carefull, some ``ERROR'' messages are
-not interesting.
-- alt-F4: kernel's place. aka the output of dmesg.
-- alt-F7: the graphical install lives there
-
-- command "bug" puts on floppy lots of interesting stuff.
-- /tmp/stage1.log: same as alt-F3 part when stage1 run (e.g. actions
-  before graphical install really begins)
-- /tmp/ddebug.log: (nearly the) same as latter alt-F3 part
-- /tmp/syslog: same as alt-F4
-- /mnt/root/drakx/ddebug.log: at the end of each step, DrakX tries to backup
-  /tmp/ddebug.log to /mnt/root/drakx. Available only after mounting of /.
-- /mnt/root/drakx/install.log: the log of the installation (or upgrade) of the rpms
-(just like rpm's /mnt/tmp/(install|upgrade).log)
-- /mnt/root/drakx/auto_inst.cfg.pl: a kickstart file generated at the end of each
-step. Can be used in 2 ways: kickstart install or ``defcfg'' install. Hopefully
-you know about kickstart. ``defcfg'' is a way to customize the default values in
-install. For example, French can be the default language with a qwerty keyboard,
-the auto-partitionning partitions can be changed, the default user class can be
-set to developer (!)...
-
-********************************************************************************
-* po translation files *********************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-DrakX uses .po files for its translation. A script takes the different
-strings out of the .pm files. It generates the DrakX.pot file which contains
-all the english strings to translate.
-To add a new language, you just have to add it to lang.pm (if it's not there
-already) and put the .po in the perl-install/po directory (see ``Ramdisk or
-not'' to know if you have to regenerate the mdkinst_stage2.gz)
-
-********************************************************************************
-* PCMCIA install ***************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-If the media you use to install is a pcmcia device, use the pcmcia boot disk.
-
-********************************************************************************
-* Ramdisk or not ***************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-The DrakX install is much bigger than the newt one. So the ramdisk which was
-used is getting big, and costs a lot in memory 
-(eg: the mdkinst_stage2 is 14MB - 23/09/99)
-(update! now size is 21MB - 24/01/01)
-(update! now size is 19MB - 26/04/01)
-
-|       | newt    | DrakX
-|-------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------
-| nfs   | live    | live
-| ftp   | ramdisk | ramdisk
-| http  | ramdisk | ramdisk
-| hd    | ramdisk | live if Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/bin/runinstall2 is a link,
-|       |         |   ramdisk otherwise
-| cdrom | ramdisk | live if memory < 52MB, ramdisk otherwise
-
-Where ramdisk is needed, if detected memory is below the limit allowed for
-ramdisk (maintained in file gi/mdk-stage1/config-stage1.h; currently 52 Mb),
-a failure dialog will be printed explaining that there is not enough memory
-to perform the installation.
-
-When i say live, it means that the stage1 will *mount* the
-Mandrake/mdkinst and use it that way.
-
-The ramdisk is used in place of the live in some cases. This ramdisk is filled
-with mdkinst_stage2.gz
-
-For cdrom install, the ramdisk is used to speed up things (access time is quite
-high on cdrom drives)
-
-For pcmcia, it depends on the type of install.
-
-
-********************************************************************************
-* modules **********************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-Modules can be found in at least 2 places:
-- in /modules/modules.mar
-- in /lib/modules.cz<KERNEL_VERSION_RELEASE>
-
-/modules/modules.mar is used in mdk-stage1. It contains only modules
-interesting for one kind of install. For example in an hd install, it
-contains scsi modules. For a network install, it contains network card
-modules. (To create, extract or view files in a ``mar'' archive, please
-use gi/mdk-stage1/mar/mar; this is basically an archive format meant to
-be minimalistic)
-
-/lib/modules.cz<KERNEL_VERSION_RELEASE> contains all modules, it is used
-in stage2.
-
-
-To manually install a module during install, switch to console #2
-and type "modprobe <modulename>". The modprobe program is a perl
-wrapper around /usr/bin/insmod. It uses the dependencies found in
-/modules/modules.dep (stage1).
-
-/usr/bin/insmod is a wrapper around /usr/bin/insmod_. It just extracts the
-module out of /lib/modules.cz in /tmp. Then it calls insmod_.
-
-/usr/bin/insmod_ is the real prog (which you usually find in /sbin/). You need
-to give it the complete path.
-
-********************************************************************************
-* Making screenshots ***********************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-1. easy solution: press "F2"!
-
-2. On a test machine, make a network install, switch to console (ctrl-alt-F2), enter:
-% xhost+
-then, on another computer:
-% DISPLAY=test_machine:0 xwd -root | convert - screenshot.png
-
-********************************************************************************
-* Auto install *****************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-A powerful auto-install system is available. It allows performing
-an install without any human interaction.
-
-To feed automatic parameters to the stage1 part (the textmode
-part - might not be necessary for you if you plan to do
-cdrom-based auto-installs, but mostly highly needed when doing
-network installs), please refer to ../mdk-stage1/doc/TECH-INFOS.
-
-About the stage2 part (the actual installer, at the time you're
-(usually) running in graphical mode), please refer to the nice
-documentation written by David Eastcott. Either install the
-package "drakx-autoinstall-doc" from contrib, or browse:
-
-http://members.shaw.ca/mandrake/drakx/9.0/HTML/
-
-The previous document will explain you how to setup the contents
-of the auto_inst.cfg file. Note that you have 3 alternatives for
-providing this file:
-- from a floppy disk; use "kickstart=floppy" as kernel parameter,
-  as explained in the document
-- from the installation volume itself; put the file in the
-  "Mandrake/base" directory of the installation volume; use
-  "kickstart" only, or "kickstart=filename" to specify another
-  filename than auto_inst.cfg
-- specified by the network; setup your DHCP server to provide the
-  "bootfile" parameter, this file will be used as the
-  "auto_inst.cfg" file; in this case you also need to provide the
-  "netauto" boot parameter
-
-In any case, if the specified file ends with -IP or -IP.pl, IP
-will be substituted by the IP address of the machine, when doing
-a network install. Might be useful so that you can control all
-your auto installs from your server.

->  o Media access methods: nfs, ftp, http, hd, cdrom
->  o Stages: init, stage1, stage2
->    - What exactly each stage does
-
-init loads stage1
-stage1 loads stage2, from various medium type
-
-stage2 is too big to fit on a floppy, that's why stage1 exists
-
->    - How each stage relates to the various media access methods
-
-stage1 knows only how to access to the media is compiled for. It
-contains only the kernel modules needed for that media. For eg,
-the nfs/ftp/http stage1 (network.img floppy) doesn't contain scsi
-modules nor ide.
-
->    - How one stage terminates and another begins. i.e., How does

-  /sbin/init just starts /sbin/stage1, and monitors its
-execution; it's here to cleanly umount the partitions when stage1
-or stage2 dies/finished
-
-  /sbin/stage1 takes care of mounting stage2 (in ramdisk if
-necessary) then it execs /usr/bin/runinstall2 (thus, stage2
-replaces stage1, and init then monitors stage2)

-* OEM **************************************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-> I am a system OEM in Bangalore,India selling systems bundled with
-> Mandrake Linux. The problem is that with every system I sell, I need to
-> install & configure the system which takes HOURS!. Can I do a diskcopy
-> instead?
-> 
-> Please Help. This is a major bottleneck for  me.
-
-many solutions:
-
-- make an install on drive hdb, then :
-      dd if=/dev/hdb of=/dev/hdc
-  but you should make sure the hardware is *REALLY* identical.
-
-- try the oem feature
-   3. - burn a cd out of *latest* cooker or 8.0 and above.
-      - boot on it telling "oem" to syslinux
-      !! it will destroy every data on the harddrive or
-         resize (or use free space) if *ONLY* one fat partition is defined !!
-      - you now have a very automated install matrix 
-      (duplicate it with "dd if=/dev/hdb of=/dev/hdc bs=1M count=730")
-
-    put the harddrive in the oem box, the user will now have an *very* automated
-    install, just asking the root password and user password, and some other
-    question according its hardware.
-
-   4. just like 3. but you may have to mount /cdrom after typing rescue on
-      syslinux prompt (oem script do it automatically if a automatic boot nfs
-      network has been done as server is known). under /cdrom may be anything
-      as long as it provides an installation tree of Mandrake Linux.
-      after that run oem script by typing "/etc/oem -f" for normal installation
-      or "/etc/oem -f server" for server installation (normal with server installed).
-
-   5. (just like 3. without burning a cd, doing the first part by hand)
-      have a look at the /etc/oem script on the rescue and do it by hand...
-
-
-cu Pixel, fpons.
-
-
-comments:
-1. maybe copy unnecessary things -> take too long
-   solution -> use bs=8k count=xxxx 
-2. kernel_reread can be found on the new rescue, source is also at end of this
-mail. This solution works with one partition. Can be easily enhanced to many
-primary partitions... For extended partitions, more complicated, but not much :)
-3. has just been added in latest cooker. It may still have some pb. The main
-current limitation is IDE only, though it can be fixed easily for special cases.

-Well here is a little description of how DrakX can be modified or extended.
-Please refer to README file for getting DrakX code source and to known more
-exactly how it works and what it can do.
-
-
-********************************************************************************
-* Execution of DrakX ***********************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-DrakX has originally be written by pixel in perl and C.
-entry point for stage2 is /usr/bin/runinstall2 which is typically a link to
-/usr/bin/install2 which simply load module install2.pm and execute
-install2::main with @ARGV.
-
-install2::main parse command line arguments, prepare installation, find the right
-install_interactive class (take a look at gi/docs/object_class.fig) according to
-command line, memory available and if the interactive chosen is initializing
-correctly, else it will try a less-demanding interactive object.
-Once done, $::o is set to this install & interactive object and main runs the
-various step of install2 defined in $o->{steps}, starting with $o->{steps}{first}
-and iterating with method install_any::getNextStep().
-while running step, it trap any errors that may arise and use perl exception to
-change step.
-
-********************************************************************************
-* DrakX modules descriptions ***************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-Here is a brief description of what each modules of DrakX is doing.
-
-install2: main module of DrakX as described above, main loop execution of DrakX.
-
-install_steps: generic installation module containing steps definition, all steps
-  should always be defined here as some methods may be used on automatic mode.
-  there is no interactivity available. typically are defined base operation for
-  configuring each step according to $o.

-directory: traverse directory recursively, needed to move correctly cluster.
-
-fat: manage fat structure.
-
-info_sector: manage info sector.

-********************************************************************************
-* Adding a new step to DrakX ***************************************************
-********************************************************************************
-Say we want to add a question for setting "alawindows" option.
-We put it pretty early in the install, let's say after "Select Installation
-Class".
-
-1. in install2.pm
-
-add
-
-  selectAlawindows => [ __("A la windows or not"), 0, 1, '' ],
-
-after
-
-  selectInstallClass => [ __("Select installation class"), 1, 1, '' ],
-
-the 0, 1, '' means not "redoable", "skip on error", "don't hide"
-
-2. add your function selectAlawindows in install2.pm
-
-sub selectAlawindows  { $o->selectAlawindows }
-
-3. add your function selectAlawindows in install_steps_interactive.pm
-
-sub selectAlawindows {
-    my ($o) = @_;
-    $o->{alawindows} = $o->ask_yesorno('', _("Throw everything away as windobe does?"), 1);
-}
-
-4. add your function selectAlawindows in install_steps.pm (not needed in that
-case, except for auto_install)
-
-sub selectAlawindows  {}

-Here is a short description to configure a PXE server using dhcpd and tftpd.
-This allows a network boot for your ethernet card conforming to the Interl
-PXE specification.
-
-********************************************************************************
-**********                       General overview                   ************
-********************************************************************************
-
-You need a dhcp server and a tftp server on one or two machines to allow the 
-network boot. We are not using a PXE server to achieve this as it is not
-mandatory. 
-You can install tftp-server and dhcp-server package from the Mandrake
-distribution for example.
-
-On the server machine at 192.168.2.1, you will find a "/etc/dhcpd.conf" sample
-file written by Florin Grad <florin@mandrakesoft.com>, where "mydomain.com" is
-assumed to be your domain name, and 192.168.1.1 a name server. All install are
-done on subnet 192.168.2.0.
-
-All the files that will be downloaded by the tftp daemon are located under 
-"/tftpboot" :
-  "/tftpboot/pxelinux.0" is a program that is loaded directly by the machine
-                         where a network boot will be done, this program comes
-                         from the SYSLINUX package by H. Peter Anvin. (look at
-                         http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php for more information)
-  "/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/" is a directory where all configuration file for
-                         pxelinux.0 will be found, pxelinux.0 will download
-                         these file by itself. It searches first for a file
-                         named accordind to the machine IP address in
-			 hexadecimal, for example for 192.168.2.20, it
-			 looks for "C0A80214" first, then "C0A8021" and so
-			 on down to "C0", "C" and "default".
-  "/tftpboot/network.rdz" is the standard network initrd for Mandrake installation.
-  "/tftpboot/vmlinuz"    is the boot kernel for installation.
-  "/tftpboot/help.msg"   is the message displayed by pxelinux.0, note that currently
-                         graphical message (as for install using SYSLINUX 1.48 with
-                         graphic patch by Mandrake) is not supported.
-
-All file "network.rdz", "vmlinuz", "help.msg" can be found by mounting "network.img",
-or the network floppy disk used for install, "pxelinux.cfg" is just an adaptation
-of the file found on the "network.img" called "syslinux.cfg" but without the reference
-to boot.msg (as it is not currently supported).
-
-Update network configuration for your needs and start dhcp server on the machine and
-tftp server and this should work.

-a little DrakX history:
-
-june 1999: 
-  i start rewriting redhat's install in perl, partly for the fun of it. I'm
-  still working for the army
-
-5 july 1999: 
-  i start full time job at mandrakesoft. But we don't have many computers and i
-  must share the accounting computer with Merieme who is working half-time. No
-  test machine (i test on others box, and destroyed Jacques partitions once),
-  guess how it slows things down?
-
-august 1999: 
-  at last computers, even test one
-  first DrakX version which can install things, very very rough
-
-september 1999: 
-  a friend of mine help me 2 weeks on DrakX relayed by Francois
-
-november 1999:
-  first released version of DrakX (goldpack). Not really stable yet.
-
-january 2000:
-  7.0 is out, with a DrakX quite stable
-
-july 2000: 
-  dams starts working on draknet
-
-mid-october -> mid-january 2000: 
-  gc rewrites the stage1 to win every kb we can 
-  -> size divided by 7 (!) for cdrom
-
-
-The DrakX team is also doing a lot of other things:
-- drakxtools
-- urpmi, early MandrakeUpdate, early rpmdrake...
-- Mandrake Control Center (new DrakConf)
-- packages maintenance/enhancing (esp. ghostscript, 3D-wrappers, lilo)
-- fixing core packages to make them installable
-- scoring packages, sorting them, flagging them... (compssList, rpmsrate)
-- reading/answering cooker and other MLs
-- helping non-perl gurus :)
-
-That doesn't give much. Me being the one more working on plain DrakX. It gives 2
-people working for 1.5 years. IMO it isn't ``spending an enormous amount of
-resources''.
-And what do you mean by ``compared to the code base size''??? DrakX is currently
-around 28K lines, which is big IMO. You can compare it with linuxconf which is
-170K lines. I think the achievement of DrakX is comparable (a 6 times code size
-win from dumb C++ to expressive perl is normal imo).
-
-
-Also it seems like we don't have the same understanding of the word
-"maintenance".
-DrakX functionalities have evolved *a lot* since the beginning:
-
-- hardware detection, configuration, debugging, work-arounding (multi-kernel installs...)
-- making things prettier
-  - more bitmaps
-  - "advanced" button
-  - syslinux graphical boot
-- making it work with latest versions of software (eg: switching to rpm4)
-- finding out the best way to use rpmlib
-- multi-cd
-- draknet: configuring every piece of stupid protocols
-- diskdrake: raid, loopback, LVM, resizing, checking stupid users entry
-- XFdrake: multi-mice, multi-heads, 3D-accel
-- porting to axp/sparc/ppc (with Stew's help)
-- always more i18n
-- keeping things small
-  - .cz format
-  - moving to .png
-  - getFile on demand from mdkinst for ramdisk installs
-
-[...]

-DrakX handles:
-- buttons
-- bool values (checkboxes)
-- ranges
-- entries
-- combo boxes (editable or not)
-- lists / radio boxes
-- tree lists
-- iconlist
-- wait messages
-
-Features:
-- all the entries above can be mixed
-- nice separation between data and displayed data (eg: choose in list of
-objects representing hda/hdb/... but displayed nicely with size...)
-- keyboard handled nicely in GTK frontend
-- callback on events:
- ok pressed => check before the dialog is hidden
- focus changed => 
-  * enables pre-setting things based on other entries
-  * value checking on the fly
-- simple/advance toggle 
-- shadowing of entries
-- tooltips
-- size of windows computed the best possible
-- perl-based
-
-Misfeatures:
-- display not flexible (though i don't know any of the tools we're talking

-- quite a few features are gtk only (simple/advance toggle, shadowing of
